Looking fwd to more details - brand / price / how much custom fab you have to do, etc

Kit is acquamist HFS4 and I think it is best kit for our cars. Here is a good thread about install to a GTI. I think for Tig it is almost same.
Aquamist HFS4 installation pictures VW Mk6 GTI - waterinjection.info.

Got this few days ago from eBay.. but it's fit and finish is a big fail. It will not line up with the bumper correctly and edges are hanging out from the bumper. Can not recommend this at all !

Thought I could cut other side too so I can use this as a quad exhaust valance for Tig. but this one is a fail !

Sorry to hear that you imported a piece of scrap metal

I've found buying bits made in China a bit hit and miss. The Tiguans over there are a kind of hybrid between 2008-2011 and facelift 2012+ models using some of the styling cues from the 2012+ (i.e. grille) but headlights from the early version. Foglights don't match either model here and they have a longer wheelbase than the rest of the world.

I'm not sure where you saw this advertised, however if it was off ebay Australia you'd probably have some recourse but if it was off an overseas site it's going to be a lot more difficult.

Yeah .. I got it from ebay US site and I don't want to ship it back as shipping cost is a killer. I should have learn a lesson from your chrome window trim attempt

I've had 2 fails. The chrome window trims and chrome fog light surrounds. You would have thought I'd have learnt after the first failed attempt
